Managing Director's report
30 June 2021

Dear Shareholders, 

Financial Year 2021 was another transformative year for TZ. We have continued our journey to become a sustainable self-
funding business as a premium technology leader in access control, smart lock & self-serve locker bank systems. 

The business set three main goals for FY2021. These include:

1. To create a sustainable business model.
2. To grow everyday revenue.
3. To build operational efficiencies. 

Financial Performance
We are very proud to report a small EBITDA positive result of $137,364 for the period. This is the first EBITDA positive result 
for the business since 2006. Moving forward the business immediate goal is to ensure the business achieves an operating 
positive cashflow for future financial years and is committed to growing shareholder return. 

Sustainable Revenue
TZ has focused for a number of years on building recurring revenues of the business. Having strong recurring revenues and 
long-term  ongoing  arrangements  with  our  clients  underpins  the  future  viability  of  TZ.  As  a  result,  the  business  can  better 
plan, manage cash flows and better communicate its plans to shareholders. 

In  FY2021  the  business  saw  a  30%  increase  in  subscription  revenues  for  our  SaaS,  maintenance  and  hosting  services. 
Recurring  revenues  grew  from  $1.7  million  in  FY2020  to  $2.3  million  in  FY2021,  with  the  annual  run  rate  for  contracted 
revenues now exceeding $2.5M at the end of the FY2021 year. The business goal is to grow everyday revenues to be over 
$10 million in coming years.  

Recapitalisation 
During the financial year TZ undertook a number of activities to recapitalise the business in order to strengthen its balance 
sheet. 

A  number  of  capital  raises  were  completed  throughout  the  financial  year  where  funds  raised  were  primarily  used  to  pay 
down  debt  owed  to  First  Samuel.  At  the  beginning  of  the  financial  year  $11.1  million  of  Debt  was  owed  to  First  Samuel 
where it reduced to $4.1 million at the end of the year. Subsequent to the year end, debt owed to First Samuel was reduced 
further to $2.5 million.

This reduction  in  debt  has  significant  implications  to  the  business.  Net  Tangible  Assets  (NTA)  have  improved  from  -12.21 
cents per share to -1.74 cents per share. This recapitalisation also ensures the business will save approximately $0.8 million 
in interest cost per annum.

Restructure
The  business  restructured  its  operations  in  FY2021  in  order  to  significantly  reduce  fixed  operational  costs,  remove 
duplication and to simplify the business. As a result the business achieved annualised cost savings in excess of $2.5 million. 

As a summary the business:

 Closed its Brisbane office & centralised head office functions out of Sydney CBD.
 Reduced senior executive & management salaries.
 Reduced headcount across the business.
 Changed reporting  lines  of the  marketing,  finance  and  operations teams  based  on  functional  rather  than  regional 








management to reduce role duplication and complexity across the regions. 
Invested in new global systems to remove duplication across the business.   
Prioritised capital expenditure towards important product updates such as the upgrade of TZ’s Data Centre Security 
Software  Platform, Centurion  Enterprise,  and  the  release  of TZ’s new SMArt Work  locker  system to  enable 
expansion of our customer base to small to medium enterprise customers.
Prioritised capital  expenditure  on  various  global management systems  such  as for sales and  CRM,  inventory and 
resource planning, and a new global accounting finance, inventory, supply chain and project management system, 
Odoo. This solid platform has improved efficiencies in our operations and provides a foundation for new growth and 
importantly, transparency and  accountability over  the key  functional  areas  of  the  business. This  allows  TZ  to 
continue  to  improve the effectiveness  of  its centralised operations,  product  development  and head  office  functions 
out of Sydney, Australia.
Focused on  new  business  opportunities  in  Europe, with Chief  Technology  Officer  Adam  Forsyth  relocating to the 
UK to pursue identified growth opportunities with Ricoh Europe and new distribution partners.

Managing Director's report
30 June 2021

Outlook
It is great to see positive momentum continuing to build behind TZ. The business is in the best shape it has been in for a 
long time. The company is well placed to continue the journey ahead to get to where we all want it to be. Covid-19 is still 
impacting the business in various ways, however going into financial year 2022 the business enters this period with a much 
stronger balance sheet, a large open order book and a very strong new business pipeline. 

The  underlying  fundamentals  of  the  business  are  strengthening  and  we  remain  confident  that  the  achievements  and 
structural change undertaken in FY2021 will enable the business to achieve its stated goal of trading cash flow positive in 
FY2022.

TZ Limited
Directors' report
30 June 2021

The directors present their report, together with the financial statements, on the consolidated entity (referred to hereafter as 
the 'consolidated entity' or 'TZ') consisting of TZ Limited (referred to hereafter as the 'company' or 'parent entity') and the 
entities it controlled at the end of, or during, the year ended 30 June 2021.

Directors
The following persons were directors of TZ Limited during the whole of the financial year and up to the date of this report, 
unless otherwise stated:

Peter Graham - Chairman
Scott Beeton - Managing Director (appointed on 8 September 2020)
John D’Angelo - Non-Executive Director (appointed on 6 October 2020)
Simon White - Non-Executive Director (appointed on 26 August 2021)
John Wilson - Managing Director (resigned on 8 September 2020)
Mario Vecchio - Non-Executive Director (resigned on 6 October 2020)

Principal activities
During  the  financial  year  the  principal  continuing  activities  of  the  consolidated  entity  consisted  of  the  development  of 
intelligent devices and smart device systems that enable the commercialisation of hardware and software solutions for the 
management,  control  and  monitoring  of  business  assets  and  the  provision  of  associated  value  added  services  through 
Telezygology Inc., TZI Australia Pty Limited ('TZI'), TZI Singapore Pte Ltd and TZI UK Limited.

All of the operations of the consolidated entity are based in Australia, the United States of America, United Kingdom and 
Singapore.

Dividends
There were no dividends paid, recommended or declared during the current or previous financial year.

Review of operations
The loss for the consolidated entity after providing for income tax amounted to $1,658,204 (30 June 2020: $5,120,229).

For the year ended 30 June 2021, the consolidated entity recorded operating revenue of $16.4M for the year, an increase 
of 27.4% on FY2020 revenues. Gross margin was 46.8%, EBITDA* was $0.1M and Net Loss After Tax was $1.7M.

TZ  is  very  pleased  to  announce  the  positive  EBITDA*  result,  which  has  been  a  target  for  several  years. It  is  especially 
pleasing to achieve this result in a year that was affected by Covid-19, which generally resulted in slower decision making 
by customers and delays to delivery of projects. Several large projects with new customers that were expected to proceed 
in the months following the initial Covid outbreak have never proceeded. On the other hand, TZ believes that its products 
are well positioned to support customers as they adjust to the new post-Covid world and is experiencing a strong growth in 
the order book of the Americas region in particular.

As a result mostly of TZ’s ongoing cost savings initiatives, the Group’s overhead costs decreased from $11.2M last year to 
$8.8M  this  year,  a  reduction  of  circa  $2.4M  or  21%. Travel  was  naturally  much  reduced  due  to  Covid  and  $0.6M  of  the 
reduction in overhead costs related to reduced travel expenditures.

TZ’s  four  main  geographic  regions  produced  a  mix  of  revenue  results  as  some  were  more  affected  by  Covid-19  than 
others. However,  due  to  cost  savings  initiatives,  all  four  regions  produced  profitable  EBITDA  results  this  year. The 
Americas  region  increased  its  US  dollar  revenues  by  26%  year  on  year  and  improved  its  EBITDA  result  from  a  loss  of 
A$1.3M to a profit of A$0.5M over the same period. The EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) region increased its revenue 
almost  fourfold  and  improved  its  EBITDA  result  from  A$0.5M  to  A$1.2M. The  ANZ  and  Asia  regions  saw  declines  in 
revenue: ANZ revenue declined by 17% but improved a small EBITDA loss last year into a A$0.1M positive result this year; 
and Asia revenue declined by 14% but still improved its EBITDA result by 21% to A$0.3M in FY21.

The  Company’s  focus  on  building  its  recurring  revenues  saw  a  30%  increase  in  FY21  in  subscription  revenues  for  our 
SaaS, maintenance and hosting services. Recurring revenues grew from $1.7M in FY20 to $2.3M in FY21.

Directors' report
30 June 2021

Our product development activities this year focused on extending our capabilities as an access control and management 
platform with emphasis on third party system integration and provisioning our solutions on a SaaS basis. This included the 
release of our new multi-tenant cloud-based service, SMArtWork, as well as developments of our core parcel management 
and  personal  storage  locker  management  systems  to  enhance  security  and  scalability  as  SaaS  solutions.  Hardware 
development focused on extending our Device EcoSystem to include integration of third-party electronic locks and access 
control elements under a single platform.

TZ completed a restructuring of its balance sheet this year through a number of capital raises that were primarily used to 
pay  down  debt. In  November  2020,  a  tranche  of  the  facility  with  First  Samuel  Limited  of  $250,000  plus  interest  was 
converted  into  equity,  followed  by  a  small  placement  of  2,000,000  shares  to  an  existing  institutional  investor  in  January 
2021, raising $0.18M. In April 2020, a larger placement of 21,500,000 shares was completed, raising $2.58M, and in June 
2020,  the  Company  issued  a  further  58,836,535  shares  under  a  non-renounceable  rights  issue  that  raised  $7.06M. All 
amounts above exclude the costs of raising the capital which totalled $0.6M.

Most of the funds from these capital raises were used to reduce the debt owed to First Samuel. As a result, the balance 
owed to First Samuel on 30 June 2021 was $4.1M, down from $11.1M the previous year end. The remaining $4.1M related 
to  a  facility  that  matured  on  31  July  2021  and  the  Company  entered  into  a  new  short-term  facility  with  First  Samuel  for 
$2.5M which matures in July 2022. 

Subsequent to the year end, the Company drew down the new $2.5M facility and settled the balance of the maturing debt 
of $4.1M by repaying $2.1M in July and converting $2.0M into equity in August (following shareholder approval of the debt-
to-equity conversion at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 16 August 2021).

In September 2020, Mr John Wilson’s three-year contract as Managing Director ended and Mr Scott Beeton was appointed 
into the Managing Director role. Mr Wilson moved into a senior executive position with the Company as Chief Evangelist, 
with responsibility for leading sales in the Australian, Asian and African markets.

There  were  several  changes  to  the  Company’s  board  of  directors  during  the  year. Mr  Scott  Beeton  joined  the  board  as 
Managing  Director  in  September  2020,  replacing  Mr  John  Wilson,  and  then  Mr  John  D’Angelo  was  appointed  as  a  non-
executive director in October 2020 following the resignation of Mr Mario Vecchio.

Further  information  about  the  Group’s  activities  this  past  year  and  plans  for  next  year  can  be  found  in  the  Managing 
Director’s Report on page 4.

*

 EBITDA is a financial measure which is not prescribed by Australian Accounting Standards (‘AAS’) and represents 
the  profit  under  AAS  adjusted  for  non-specific  non-cash  and  significant  items.  The  directors  consider  EBITDA  to 
reflect the core earnings of the consolidated entity.

Significant changes in the state of affairs
There were no significant changes in the state of affairs of the consolidated entity during the financial year.

Matters subsequent to the end of the financial year
On 1 July 2021, TZ drew down the full debenture facility of $2,500,000 that was established with First Samuel on 29 June 
2021, and which matures on 31 July 2022. This facility carries a coupon rate of BBSW + 4.5% per annum and a facility fee 
of 1% per annum payable in advance. The drawn funds were used to repay $2.1 million of debt due under the old facility 
that matured on 31 July 2021 as well as the facility fee of the new debenture facility.

On 17 August 2021, the company issued 16,666,667 ordinary shares to First Samuel Limited at a deemed issue price of 
$0.12 per share following the conversion of $2,000,000 of debenture debt into ordinary shares in the company which was 
approved by the company’s shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 16 August 2021.

The consequences of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic are continuing to be felt around the world, and its impact on 
the  consolidated  entity,  if  any,  has  been  reflected  in  its  published  results  to  date.  Whilst  it  would  appear  that  control 
measures and related government policies, including the roll out of the vaccine, have started to mitigate the risks caused 
by COVID-19, it is not possible at this time to state that the pandemic will not subsequently impact the consolidated entity's 
operations going forward. The consolidated entity now has experience in the swift implementation of business continuation 
processes  should  future  lockdowns  of  the  population  occur,  and  these  processes  continue  to  evolve  to  minimise  any 
operational disruption. Management continues to monitor the situation both locally and internationally.

Directors' report
30 June 2021

Remuneration report (audited)
The  remuneration  report,  which  has  been  audited,  outlines  the  director  and  key  management  personnel  remuneration 
arrangements for the consolidated entity and the company, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations Act 
2001 and its Regulations.

Key management personnel are those persons having authority and responsibility for planning, directing and controlling the 
activities of the entity, directly or indirectly, including all directors.

The remuneration report is set out under the following main headings:

Principles used to determine the nature and amount of remuneration
The objective of the consolidated entity's and company's executive reward framework is to ensure reward for performance 
is  competitive  and  appropriate  for  the  results  delivered.  The  framework  aligns  executive  reward  with  the  achievement  of 
strategic objectives and the creation of value for shareholders and conforms with the market best practice for delivery of 
reward.  The  Board  of  Directors  ('the  Board')  ensures  that  executive  reward  satisfies  the  following  key  criteria  for  good 
reward governance practices:
●
●
●

set competitive remuneration packages to attract and retain high calibre employees;
link executive rewards to shareholder value creation; and
establish appropriate demanding performance hurdles for variable executive remuneration.

The  Board  reviews  and  is  responsible  for  the  consolidated  entity’s  remuneration  policies,  procedures  and  practices.  A 
Remuneration and Nomination Committee is responsible for the remuneration policies of the consolidated entity.

The  consolidated  entity  established  a  TZ  Employee  Incentive  Scheme  ('TZEIS')  in  2009  to  attract,  retain,  motivate  and 
reward senior executives and directors (including non-executive directors) of the company (collectively the 'Participants') by 
issuing options to the Participants to allow the Participants to acquire fully paid ordinary class shares in the company upon 
exercising the options. The exercise of each option entitles the holder of that option to acquire one fully paid ordinary class 
share in the capital of the company.

Under the TZEIS, the number of options that may be issued to a Participant and the performance criteria and hurdles to be 
met prior to the issue or exercise of such options is to be set by the Remuneration and Nomination Committee.

Non-executive directors' remuneration
Fees  and  payments  to  non-executive  directors  reflect  the  demands  which  are  made  on,  and  the  responsibilities  of,  the 
directors.  Non-executive  directors'  fees  and  payments  are  reviewed  annually  by  the  Remuneration  and  Nomination 
Committee. The Remuneration and Nomination Committee considers advice from shareholders and takes into account the 
fees  paid  to  non–executive  directors  of  comparable  companies,  when  undertaking  the  annual  review  process.  Non-
executive directors are entitled to participate in the TZEIS but do not receive any other incentives.

ASX  listing  rules  require  that  the  aggregate  non-executive  directors  remuneration  shall  be  determined  periodically  by  a 
general meeting. The amount of aggregate remuneration sought to be approved by shareholders and the manner in which 
it  is  apportioned  amongst  directors  is  reviewed  annually.  The  most  recent  determination  was  at  the  AGM  held  on  30 
November 2006, where the shareholders approved an aggregate remuneration of $500,000.

Executive remuneration
The  consolidated  entity  and  company  aims  to  reward  executives  with  a  level  and  mix  of  remuneration  based  on  their 
position and responsibility, which is both fixed and variable.

The executive remuneration and reward framework has four components:
●
●
●
●

base pay and non-monetary benefits;
short-term performance incentives;
share-based payments; and
other remuneration such as superannuation and long service leave.

Directors' report
30 June 2021

The combination of these comprises the executive's total remuneration.

Fixed  remuneration,  consisting  of  base  salary,  superannuation  and  non-monetary  benefits,  are  reviewed  annually  by  the 
Remuneration and Nomination Committee, based on individual and business unit performance, the overall performance of 
the consolidated entity and comparable market remunerations.

Executives  can  receive  their  fixed  remuneration  in  the  form  of  cash  or  other  fringe  benefits  (for  example  motor  vehicle 
benefits)  where  it  does  not  create  any  additional  costs  to  the  consolidated  entity  and  adds  additional  value  for  the 
executive.

The  short-term  incentives  ('STI')  program  is  designed  to  align  the  targets  of  the  business  units  with  the  targets  of  those 
executives in charge of meeting those targets. STI payments are granted to executives based on specific annual targets 
and  key  performance  indicators  ('KPI')  being  achieved.  KPI’s  can  include  profit  contribution,  customer  satisfaction, 
leadership contribution and product management.

The long-term incentives ('LTI') includes long service leave and share-based payments. As noted above, the TZEIS Plan 
has  been  set  up  to  reward  executives  based  on  long  term  incentive  measures  in  the  form  of  options  and  rights.  These 
include increase in shareholders' value relative to the entire market and the increase compared to the consolidated entity's 
direct competitors.

Consolidated entity performance and link to remuneration
Remuneration for certain individuals is directly linked to the performance of the consolidated entity. Executives and other 
employees  can  be  issued  with  options  and  rights  to  acquire  shares  in  the  company.  The  number  and  the  terms  of  the 
options  and  rights  issued  are  determined  by  the  Remuneration  and  Nomination  Committee  after  consideration  of  the 
employee's performance and their ability to contribute to the achievement of the consolidated entity's objectives. Refer to 
the  additional  information  section  of  the  remuneration  report  for  details  of  the  last  five  years  earnings  and  total 
shareholders' return ('TSR').

Voting and comments made at the company's 2020 Annual General Meeting ('AGM')
At the last AGM 96.15% of the shareholders voted to adopt the remuneration report for the year ended 30 June 2020. The 
company did not receive any specific feedback at the AGM regarding its remuneration practices.

Directors' report
30 June 2021

Shares issued on the exercise of options
There were no ordinary shares of TZ Limited issued on the exercise of options during the year ended 30 June 2021 and up 
to the date of this report.

Indemnity and insurance of officers
The company has indemnified the directors and executives of the company for costs incurred, in their capacity as a director 
or executive, for which they may be held personally liable, except where there is a lack of good faith.

During the financial year, the company paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the directors and executives of the 
company  against  a  liability  to  the  extent  permitted  by  the  Corporations  Act  2001.  The  contract  of  insurance  prohibits 
disclosure of the nature of the liability and the amount of the premium.

Indemnity and insurance of auditor
The company has not, during or since the end of the financial year, indemnified or agreed to indemnify the auditor of the 
company or any related entity against a liability incurred by the auditor.

During the financial year, the company has not paid a premium in respect of a contract to insure the auditor of the company 
or any related entity.

Proceedings on behalf of the company
No  person  has  applied  to  the  Court  under  section  237  of  the  Corporations  Act  2001  for  leave  to  bring  proceedings  on 
behalf  of  the  company,  or  to  intervene  in  any  proceedings  to  which  the  company  is  a  party  for  the  purpose  of  taking 
responsibility on behalf of the company for all or part of those proceedings.

Non-audit services
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor for non-audit services provided during the financial year by the auditor 
are outlined in note 27 to the financial statements.

The directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services during the financial year, by the auditor (or by another 
person or firm on the auditor's behalf), is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by 
the Corporations Act 2001.

The directors are of the opinion that the services as disclosed in note 27 to the financial statements do not compromise the 
external auditor's independence requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 for the following reasons:
●

all non-audit services have been reviewed and approved to ensure that they do not impact the integrity and objectivity 
of the auditor; and
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in APES 110 Code 
of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the Accounting Professional and Ethical Standards Board, including 
reviewing or auditing the auditor's own work, acting in a management or decision-making capacity for the company, 
acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risks and rewards.

●

Officers of the company who are former partners of PKF Brisbane Audit
There are no officers of the company who are former partners of PKF Brisbane Audit.

Auditor's independence declaration
A copy of the auditor's independence declaration as required under section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out 
immediately after this directors' report.

Notes to the financial statements
30 June 2021

Note 1. Significant accounting policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below. These policies 
have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

New or amended Accounting Standards and Interpretations adopted
The  consolidated  entity  has  adopted  all  of  the  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian 
Accounting Standards Board ('AASB') that are mandatory for the current reporting period.

Any new or amended Accounting Standards or Interpretations that are not yet mandatory have not been early adopted.

The following Accounting Standards and Interpretations are most relevant to the consolidated entity:

Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework)
The  consolidated  entity  has  adopted  the  revised  Conceptual  Framework  from  1  July  2020.  The  Conceptual  Framework 
contains new definition and recognition criteria as well as new guidance on measurement that affects several Accounting 
Standards, but it has not had a material impact on the consolidated entity's financial statements.

Going concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes continuity of normal business 
activities and the realisation of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

During the financial year ended 30 June 2021, the consolidated entity incurred a net loss after tax of $1,658,204 (30 June 
2020: $5,120,229) and a cash outflow from operating activities of $2,597,427 (30 June 2020: $3,806,181). As at 30 June 
2021,  the  consolidated  entity  had  a  net  current  asset  deficiency  of  $3,444,748  (30  June  2020:  net  current  assets  of 
$285,872) and net liabilities of $1,505,777 (30 June 2020: $9,354,872).

While the consolidated entity incurred losses for the financial year ended 30 June 2021, in assessing the appropriateness 
of the going concern concept the following factors have been taken into consideration by the Directors:
●

The Directors are of the view the consolidated entity is on track to meet revenue targets for the 30 June 2022 financial 
year. It is expected that, as the monthly revenue levels increase, the consolidated entity’s operating business units will 
be in a position to contribute positive cash to the bottom line; and
The  Directors  maintain  a  positive  outlook  on  achieving  profitability  in  the  30  June  2022  financial  year  based  on  the 
strength of the sales pipeline.

●

In  making  their  assessment,  the  Directors  acknowledge  that  the  ability  of  the  consolidated  entity  to  continue  as  a  going 
concern  is  dependent  on  meeting  sales  and  profitability  forecasts,  the  generation  of  positive  cash  flows,  the  continued 
support of shareholders and lenders and the raising of additional share capital as and when required in the future.

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis for the above reasons. Accordingly, the financial 
statements  do  not  include  any  adjustments  relating  to  the  recoverability  and  classification  of  recorded  assets  or  to  the 
amounts  and  classification  of  liabilities  that  might  be  necessary  should  the  consolidated  entity  not  continue  as  a  going 
concern.

Basis of preparation
These general purpose financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and 
Interpretations  issued  by  the  Australian  Accounting  Standards  Board  ('AASB')  and  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  as 
appropriate  for  for-profit  oriented  entities.  These  financial  statements  also  comply  with  International  Financial  Reporting 
Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board ('IASB').

Historical cost convention
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Critical accounting estimates
The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  the  use  of  certain  critical  accounting  estimates.  It  also  requires 
management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the consolidated entity's accounting policies. The areas 
involving  a  higher  degree  of  judgement  or  complexity,  or  areas  where  assumptions  and  estimates  are  significant  to  the 
financial statements, are disclosed in note 2.

Notes to the financial statements
30 June 2021

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Parent entity information
In  accordance  with  the  Corporations  Act  2001,  these  financial  statements  present  the  results  of  the  consolidated  entity 
only. Supplementary information about the parent entity is disclosed in note 30.

Principles of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of TZ Limited ('company' or 
'parent  entity')  as  at  30  June  2021  and  the  results  of  all  subsidiaries  for  the  year  then  ended.  TZ  Limited  and  its 
subsidiaries together are referred to in these financial statements as the 'consolidated entity'.

Subsidiaries are all those entities over which the consolidated entity has control. The consolidated entity controls an entity 
when the consolidated entity is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has 
the ability to affect those returns through its power to direct the activities of the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated 
from the date on which control is transferred to the consolidated entity. They are de-consolidated from the date that control 
ceases.

Intercompany transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between entities in the consolidated entity are 
eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of the impairment of the asset 
transferred.  Accounting  policies  of  subsidiaries  have  been  changed  where  necessary  to  ensure  consistency  with  the 
policies adopted by the consolidated entity.

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. A change in ownership interest, 
without  the  loss  of  control,  is  accounted  for  as  an  equity  transaction,  where  the  difference  between  the  consideration 
transferred  and  the  book  value  of  the  share  of  the  non-controlling  interest  acquired  is  recognised  directly  in  equity 
attributable to the parent.

Where the consolidated entity loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets including goodwill, liabilities and 
non-controlling  interest  in  the  subsidiary  together  with  any  cumulative  translation  differences  recognised  in  equity.  The 
consolidated  entity  recognises  the  fair  value  of  the  consideration  received  and  the  fair  value  of  any  investment  retained 
together with any gain or loss in profit or loss.

Operating segments
Operating  segments  are  presented  using  the  'management  approach',  where  the  information  presented  is  on  the  same 
basis as the internal reports provided to the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM'). The CODM is responsible for the 
allocation of resources to operating segments and assessing their performance.

Foreign currency translation
The financial statements are presented in Australian dollars, which is TZ Limited's functional and presentation currency.

Foreign currency transactions
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the entity's functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the 
dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from 
the  translation  at  financial  year-end  exchange  rates  of  monetary  assets  and  liabilities  denominated  in  foreign  currencies 
are recognised in profit or loss.

Foreign operations
The  assets  and  liabilities  of  foreign  operations  are  translated  into  Australian  dollars  using  the  exchange  rates  at  the 
reporting date. The revenues and expenses of foreign operations are translated into Australian dollars using the average 
exchange rates, which approximate the rates at the dates of the transactions, for the period. All resulting foreign exchange 
differences are recognised in other comprehensive income through the foreign currency reserve in equity.

The foreign currency reserve is recognised in profit or loss when the foreign operation or net investment is disposed of.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Revenue recognition
The consolidated entity recognises revenue as follows:

Revenue from contracts with customers
Revenue  is  recognised  at  an  amount  that  reflects  the  consideration  to  which  the  consolidated  entity  is  expected  to  be 
entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. For each contract with a customer, the consolidated 
entity:  identifies  the  contract  with  a  customer;  identifies  the  performance  obligations  in  the  contract;  determines  the 
transaction price which takes into account estimates of variable consideration and the time value of money; allocates the 
transaction  price  to  the  separate  performance  obligations  on  the  basis  of  the  relative  stand-alone  selling  price  of  each 
distinct good or service to be delivered; and recognises revenue when or as each performance obligation is satisfied in a 
manner that depicts the transfer to the customer of the goods or services promised.

Variable consideration within the transaction price, if any, reflects concessions provided to the customer such as discounts, 
rebates and refunds, any potential bonuses receivable from the customer and any other contingent events. Such estimates 
are  determined  using  either  the  'expected  value'  or  'most  likely  amount'  method.  The  measurement  of  variable 
consideration is subject to a constraining principle whereby revenue will only be recognised to the extent that it is highly 
probable  that  a  significant  reversal  in  the  amount  of  cumulative  revenue  recognised  will  not  occur.  The  measurement 
constraint  continues  until  the  uncertainty  associated  with  the  variable  consideration  is  subsequently  resolved.  Amounts 
received that are subject to the constraining principle are recognised as a refund liability.

Sale of software and hardware
Sales of software and hardware are recognised at the point of sale, which is where the customer has taken delivery of the 
goods.

Rendering of installation and commissioning services
Rendering  of  installation  and  commissioning  services  revenue  is  recognised  at  the  point  in  time  when  software  and 
hardware has been installed.

Rendering of maintenance services
Revenue  from  maintenance  services  is  typically  paid  in  advance  on  an  annual,  quarterly  or  monthly  basis.  Revenue  is 
recognised over the period the customer support/hosting relates to (the coverage period). Fees received in advance of the 
performance of services are deferred and recognised as contract liabilities.

Rendering of professional services
Rendering of professional services revenue is recognised when the service to the customer is completed.

Interest revenue
Interest  revenue  is  recognised  as  it  accrues  using  the  effective  interest  method.  This  is  a  method  of  calculating  the 
amortised cost of a financial asset and allocating the interest income over the relevant period using the effective interest 
rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts through the expected life of the financial asset 
to the net carrying amount of the financial asset.

Government grants
Grants from the government are recognised at their fair value when there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be 
received and that the consolidated entity will comply with all attached conditions. Government grants relating to costs are 
deferred and recognised in profit or loss as other income over the periods necessary to match them with the costs that they 
are intended to compensate.

Income tax
The  income  tax  expense  or  benefit  for  the  period  is  the  tax  payable  on  that  period's  taxable  income  based  on  the 
applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction, adjusted by the changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to 
temporary differences, unused tax losses and the adjustment recognised for prior periods, where applicable.

Notes to the financial statements
30 June 2021

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to be applied when 
the  assets  are  recovered  or  liabilities  are  settled,  based  on  those  tax  rates  that  are  enacted  or  substantively  enacted, 
except for:
●

when the deferred income tax asset or liability arises from the initial recognition of goodwill or an asset or liability in a 
transaction that is not a business combination and that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither the accounting 
nor taxable profits; or
when the  taxable temporary difference is associated  with  interests in subsidiaries,  associates or  joint ventures,  and 
the  timing  of  the  reversal  can  be  controlled  and  it  is  probable  that  the  temporary  difference  will  not  reverse  in  the 
foreseeable future.

●

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that 
future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

The carrying amount of recognised and unrecognised deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date. Deferred 
tax assets recognised are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that future taxable profits will be available for 
the carrying amount to be recovered. Previously unrecognised deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is 
probable that there are future taxable profits available to recover the asset.

Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  offset  only  where  there  is  a  legally  enforceable  right  to  offset  current  tax  assets 
against  current  tax  liabilities  and  deferred  tax  assets  against  deferred  tax  liabilities;  and  they  relate  to  the  same  taxable 
authority on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities which intend to settle simultaneously.

Reclassification
Comparative  figures  in  the  statement of  profit  or  loss  and  other  comprehensive  income and in the statement  of  financial 
position have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Current and non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current and non-current classification.

An asset is classified as current when: it is either expected to be realised or intended to be sold or consumed in the entity's 
normal operating cycle; it is held primarily for the purpose of trading; it is expected to be realised within 12 months after the 
reporting period; or the asset is cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability 
for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when: it is either expected to be settled in the entity's normal operating cycle; it is held 
primarily  for  the  purpose  of  trading;  it  is  due  to  be  settled  within  12  months  after  the  reporting  period;  or  there  is  no 
unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period. All other liabilities 
are classified as non-current. 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are always classified as non-current.

Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short-term, highly 
liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and 
which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value.

Trade and other receivables
Trade  receivables  are  initially  recognised  at  fair  value  and  subsequently  measured  at  amortised  cost  using  the  effective 
interest method, less any allowance for expected credit losses. Trade receivables are generally due for settlement within 
30 days.

The  consolidated  entity  has  applied  the  simplified  approach  to  measuring  expected  credit  losses,  which  uses  a  lifetime 
expected  loss  allowance.  To  measure  the  expected  credit  losses,  trade  receivables  have  been  grouped  based  on  days 
overdue.

Other receivables are recognised at amortised cost, less any allowance for expected credit losses.

Notes to the financial statements
30 June 2021

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Contract assets
Contract assets are recognised when the consolidated entity has transferred goods or services to the customer but where 
the consolidated entity is yet to establish an unconditional right to consideration. Contract assets are treated as financial 
assets for impairment purposes.

Inventories
Finished  goods  are  stated  at  the  lower  of  cost  and  net  realisable  value  on  an  average  cost  basis.  Cost  comprises  of 
purchase and delivery costs, net of rebates and discounts received or receivable.

Stock in transit is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises of purchase and delivery costs, net of 
rebates and discounts received or receivable.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion 
and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.

Investments and other financial assets
Investments  and  other  financial  assets  are  initially  measured  at  fair  value.  Transaction  costs  are  included  as  part  of  the 
initial measurement, except for financial assets at fair value through profit or loss. Such assets are subsequently measured 
at  either  amortised  cost  or  fair  value  depending  on  their  classification.  Classification  is  determined  based  on  both  the 
business  model  within  which  such  assets  are  held  and  the  contractual  cash  flow  characteristics  of  the  financial  asset 
unless, an accounting mismatch is being avoided.

Financial  assets are  derecognised  when  the  rights  to  receive  cash  flows  have  expired  or  have  been  transferred  and  the 
consolidated  entity  has  transferred  substantially  all  the  risks  and  rewards  of  ownership.  When  there  is  no  reasonable 
expectation of recovering part or all of a financial asset, its carrying value is written off.

Financial assets at amortised cost
A  financial  asset  is  measured  at  amortised  cost  only  if  both  of  the  following  conditions  are  met:  (i)  it  is  held  within  a 
business model whose objective is to hold assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and (ii) the contractual terms of 
the financial asset represent contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest.

Impairment of financial assets
The  consolidated  entity  recognises  a  loss  allowance  for  expected  credit  losses  on  financial  assets  which  are  either 
measured at amortised cost or fair value through other comprehensive income. The measurement of the loss allowance 
depends  upon  the  consolidated  entity's  assessment  at  the  end  of  each  reporting  period  as  to  whether  the  financial 
instrument's  credit  risk  has  increased  significantly  since  initial  recognition,  based  on  reasonable  and  supportable 
information that is available, without undue cost or effort to obtain.

Where  there  has  not  been  a  significant  increase  in  exposure  to  credit  risk  since  initial  recognition,  a  12-month  expected 
credit loss allowance is estimated. This represents a portion of the asset's lifetime expected credit losses that is attributable 
to a default event that is possible within the next 12 months. Where a financial asset has become credit impaired or where 
it  is  determined  that  credit  risk  has  increased  significantly,  the  loss  allowance  is  based  on  the  asset's  lifetime  expected 
credit losses. The amount of expected credit loss recognised is measured on the basis of the probability weighted present 
value of anticipated cash shortfalls over the life of the instrument discounted at the original effective interest rate.

Property, plant and equipment
Plant  and  equipment  is  stated  at  historical  cost  less  accumulated  depreciation  and  impairment.  Historical  cost  includes 
expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

Depreciation  is  calculated  on  a  straight-line  basis  to  write  off  the  net  cost  of  each  item  of  property,  plant  and  equipment  
over their expected useful lives as follows:

Leasehold improvements
Plant and equipment
Office equipment

20 - 33%
20%
15 - 35%

The  residual  values,  useful  lives  and  depreciation  methods  are  reviewed,  and  adjusted  if  appropriate,  at  each  reporting 
date.

TZ Limited
Notes to the financial statements
30 June 2021

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful life of the assets, 
whichever is shorter.

An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when there is no future economic benefit to the 
consolidated entity. 

Right-of-use assets
A right-of-use asset is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which 
comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for, as applicable, any lease payments made at or before the 
commencement date net of any lease incentives received, any initial direct costs incurred, and, except where included in 
the  cost  of  inventories,  an  estimate  of  costs  expected  to  be  incurred  for  dismantling  and  removing  the  underlying  asset, 
and restoring the site or asset.

Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful 
life of the asset, whichever is the shorter. Where the consolidated entity expects to obtain ownership of the leased asset at 
the end of the lease term, the depreciation is over its estimated useful life. Right-of use assets are subject to impairment or 
adjusted for any remeasurement of lease liabilities.

The  consolidated  entity  has  elected  not  to  recognise  a  right-of-use  asset  and  corresponding  lease  liability  for  short-term 
leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets. Lease payments on these assets are expensed to 
profit or loss as incurred.

Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their fair value 
at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognised at cost. Indefinite life intangible 
assets  are  not  amortised  and  are  subsequently  measured  at  cost  less  any  impairment.  Finite  life  intangible  assets  are 
subsequently  measured  at  cost  less  amortisation  and  any  impairment.  The  gains  or  losses  recognised  in  profit  or  loss 
arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as the difference between net disposal proceeds and the 
carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. 
Changes in the expected pattern of consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortisation 
method or period.

Patents
Expenditure directly attributable to the registration of patents is capitalised at cost and is amortised over the useful life of 15 
years.

Research and development costs
Research costs are expensed as incurred. Development expenditure incurred on an individual project is capitalised if the 
product or service is technically feasible, adequate resources are available to complete the project, it is probable that future 
economic  benefits  will  be  generated  and  expenditure  attributable  to  the  project  can  be  measured  reliably.  Expenditure 
capitalised comprises costs of materials, services, direct labour and an appropriate portion of overheads.

Capitalised development expenditure is stated at cost less accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses and are 
amortised over the period of expected future sales from the related projects which vary from 3 to 5 years.

Impairment of non-financial assets
Non-financial assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying 
amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is  recognised for the amount by which the asset's carrying amount 
exceeds its recoverable amount.

Recoverable amount is the higher of an asset's fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use. The value-in-use is the 
present value of the estimated future cash flows relating to the asset using a pre-tax discount rate specific to the asset or 
cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Assets that do not have independent cash flows are grouped together to 
form a cash-generating unit.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

Trade and other payables
Trade and other payables represent liabilities for goods and services provided to the consolidated entity prior to the end of 
the financial year and which are unpaid. Due to their short-term nature they are measured at amortised cost and are not 
discounted. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

Contract liabilities
Contract  liabilities  represent  the  consolidated  entity's  obligation  to  transfer  goods  or  services  to  a  customer  and  are 
recognised  when  a  customer  pays  consideration,  or  when  the  consolidated  entity  recognises  a  receivable  to  reflect  its 
unconditional  right  to  consideration  (whichever  is  earlier)  before  the  consolidated  entity  has  transferred  the  goods  or 
services to the customer.

Borrowings
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the fair value of the consideration received, net of transaction costs. They 
are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Lease liabilities
A lease liability is recognised at the commencement date of a lease. The lease liability is initially recognised at the present 
value of the lease payments to be made over the term of the lease, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease 
or,  if  that  rate  cannot  be  readily  determined,  the  consolidated  entity's  incremental  borrowing  rate.  Lease  payments 
comprise of fixed payments less any lease incentives receivable, variable lease payments that depend on an index or a 
rate, amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees, exercise price of a purchase option when the exercise 
of the option is reasonably certain to occur, and any anticipated termination penalties.

Lease liabilities are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The carrying amounts are remeasured 
if  there  is  a  change  in  the  following:  future  lease  payments  arising  from  a  change  in  an  index  or  a  rate  used;  residual 
guarantee; lease term; certainty of a purchase option and termination penalties. When a lease liability is remeasured, an 
adjustment  is  made  to  the  corresponding  right-of  use  asset,  or  to  profit  or  loss  if  the  carrying  amount  of  the  right-of-use 
asset is fully written down.

Finance costs
Finance costs attributable to qualifying assets are capitalised as part of the asset. All other finance costs are expensed in 
the period in which they are incurred.

Employee benefits

Short-term employee benefits
Liabilities for wages and salaries and other employee benefits expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date 
are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled.

Other long-term employee benefits
Employee benefits not expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are measured at the present value of 
expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration 
is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. Expected 
future  payments  are  discounted  using  market  yields  at  the  reporting  date  on  high  quality  corporate  bonds  with  terms  to 
maturity and currency that match, as closely as possible.

Defined contribution superannuation expense
Contributions to defined contribution superannuation plans are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Share-based payments
Equity-settled share-based compensation benefits are provided to employees.

Equity-settled transactions are awards of shares, or options over shares, that are provided to employees in exchange for 
the rendering of services.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  is  measured  at  fair  value  on  grant  date.  Fair  value  is  independently  determined 
using the Black-Scholes option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of the option, the impact 
of dilution, the share price at grant date, expected price volatility of the underlying share, the expected dividend yield, the 
risk  free  interest  rate  for  the  term  of  the  option,  together  with  non-vesting  conditions  that  do  not  determine  whether  the 
consolidated entity receives the services that entitle the employees to receive payment. No account is taken of any other 
vesting conditions.

The  cost  of  equity-settled  transactions  is  recognised  as  an  expense  with  a  corresponding  increase  in  equity  over  the 
vesting period. The cumulative charge to profit or loss is calculated based on the grant date fair value of the award, the 
best  estimate  of  the  number  of  awards  that  are  likely  to  vest  and  the  expired  portion  of  the  vesting  period.  The  amount 
recognised in profit or loss for the period is the cumulative amount calculated at each reporting date less amounts already 
recognised in previous periods.

Market  conditions  are  taken  into  consideration  in  determining  fair  value.  Therefore,  any  awards  subject  to  market 
conditions  are  considered  to  vest  irrespective  of  whether  or  not  that  market  condition  has  been  met,  provided  all  other 
conditions are satisfied.

If equity-settled awards are modified, as a minimum an expense is recognised as if the modification had not been made. 
An  additional  expense  is  recognised,  over  the  remaining  vesting  period,  for  any  modification  that  increases  the  total  fair 
value of the share-based compensation benefit as at the date of modification.

If the non-vesting condition is within the control of the consolidated entity or employee, the failure to satisfy the condition is 
treated as a cancellation. If the condition is not within the control of the consolidated entity or employee and is not satisfied 
during the vesting period, any remaining expense for the award is recognised over the remaining vesting period, unless the 
award is forfeited.

If equity-settled awards are cancelled, they are treated as if they had vested on the date of cancellation, and any remaining 
expense is recognised immediately. If a new replacement award is substituted for the cancelled award, the cancelled and 
new award are treated as if they were a modification.

Fair value measurement
When an asset or liability, financial or non-financial, is measured at fair value for recognition or disclosure purposes, the 
fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction 
between  market  participants  at  the  measurement  date;  and  assumes  that  the  transaction  will  take  place  either:  in  the 
principal market; or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market.

Fair  value  is  measured  using  the  assumptions  that  market  participants  would  use  when  pricing  the  asset  or  liability, 
assuming  they  act in their  economic  best  interests.  For  non-financial  assets,  the  fair  value  measurement  is  based  on  its 
highest  and  best  use.  Valuation  techniques  that  are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances  and  for  which  sufficient  data  are 
available  to  measure  fair  value,  are  used,  maximising  the  use  of  relevant  observable  inputs  and  minimising  the  use  of 
unobservable inputs.

Issued capital
Ordinary shares are classified as equity.

Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, 
from the proceeds.

Business combinations
The  acquisition  method  of  accounting  is  used  to  account  for  business  combinations  regardless  of  whether  equity 
instruments or other assets are acquired.

The  consideration  transferred  is  the  sum  of  the  acquisition-date  fair  values  of  the  assets  transferred,  equity  instruments 
issued or liabilities incurred by the acquirer to former owners of the acquiree and the amount of any non-controlling interest 
in the acquiree. For each business combination, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree is measured at either fair value 
or  at  the  proportionate  share  of  the  acquiree's  identifiable  net  assets.  All  acquisition  costs  are  expensed  as  incurred  to 
profit or loss.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

On the acquisition of a business, the consolidated entity assesses the financial assets acquired and liabilities assumed for 
appropriate classification and designation in accordance with the contractual terms, economic conditions, the consolidated 
entity's operating or accounting policies and other pertinent conditions in existence at the acquisition-date.

Where  the  business  combination  is  achieved  in  stages,  the  consolidated  entity  remeasures  its  previously  held  equity 
interest in the acquiree at the acquisition-date fair value and the difference between the fair value and the previous carrying 
amount is recognised in profit or loss.

Contingent  consideration  to  be  transferred  by  the  acquirer  is  recognised  at  the  acquisition-date  fair  value.  Subsequent 
changes  in  the  fair  value  of  the  contingent  consideration  classified  as  an  asset  or  liability  is  recognised  in  profit  or  loss. 
Contingent  consideration  classified  as  equity  is  not  remeasured  and  its  subsequent  settlement  is  accounted  for  within 
equity.

The  difference  between  the  acquisition-date  fair  value  of  assets  acquired,  liabilities  assumed  and  any  non-controlling 
interest in the acquiree and the fair value of the consideration transferred and the fair value of any pre-existing investment 
in the acquiree is recognised as goodwill. If the consideration transferred and the pre-existing fair value is less than the fair 
value of the identifiable net assets acquired, being a bargain purchase to the acquirer, the difference is recognised as a 
gain directly in profit or loss by the acquirer on the acquisition-date, but only after a reassessment of the identification and 
measurement of the net assets acquired, the non-controlling interest in the acquiree, if any, the consideration transferred 
and the acquirer's previously held equity interest in the acquirer.

Business  combinations  are  initially  accounted  for  on  a  provisional  basis.  The  acquirer  retrospectively  adjusts  the 
provisional amounts recognised and also recognises additional assets or liabilities during the measurement period, based 
on  new  information  obtained  about  the  facts  and  circumstances  that  existed  at  the  acquisition-date.  The  measurement 
period ends on either the earlier of (i) 12 months from the date of the acquisition or (ii) when the acquirer receives all the 
information possible to determine fair value.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the profit attributable to the owners of TZ Limited, excluding any costs of 
servicing  equity  other  than  ordinary  shares,  by  the  weighted  average  number  of  ordinary  shares  outstanding  during  the 
financial year, adjusted for bonus elements in ordinary shares issued during the financial year.

Diluted earnings per share
Diluted earnings per share adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per share to take into account 
the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary shares and the 
weighted  average  number  of  additional  ordinary  shares  that  would  have  been  outstanding  assuming  conversion  of  all 
dilutive potential ordinary shares.

Goods and Services Tax ('GST') and other similar taxes
Revenues,  expenses  and  assets  are  recognised  net  of  the  amount  of  associated  GST,  unless  the  GST  incurred  is  not 
recoverable from the tax authority. In this case it is recognised as part of the cost of the acquisition of the asset or as part 
of the expense.

Receivables  and  payables  are  stated  inclusive  of  the  amount  of  GST  receivable  or  payable.  The  net  amount  of  GST 
recoverable  from,  or  payable  to,  the  tax  authority  is  included  in  other  receivables  or  other  payables  in  the  statement  of 
financial position.

Cash  flows  are  presented  on  a  gross  basis.  The  GST  components  of  cash  flows  arising  from  investing  or  financing 
activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the tax authority, are presented as operating cash flows.

Commitments and contingencies are disclosed net of the amount of GST recoverable from, or payable to, the tax authority.

Note 1. Significant accounting policies (continued)

New Accounting Standards and Interpretations not yet mandatory or early adopted
Australian  Accounting  Standards  and  Interpretations  that  have  recently  been  issued  or  amended  but  are  not  yet 
mandatory, have not been early adopted by the consolidated entity for the annual reporting period ended 30 June 2021. 
The  consolidated  entity  has  not  yet  assessed  the  impact  of  these  new  or  amended  Accounting  Standards  and 
Interpretations.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions

The  preparation  of  the  financial  statements  requires  management  to  make  judgements,  estimates  and  assumptions  that 
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Management continually evaluates its judgements and estimates in 
relation  to  assets,  liabilities,  contingent  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses.  Management  bases  its  judgements,  estimates 
and  assumptions  on  historical  experience  and  on  other  various  factors,  including  expectations  of  future  events, 
management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting judgements and estimates will 
seldom equal the related actual results. The judgements, estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing 
a  material  adjustment  to  the  carrying  amounts  of  assets  and  liabilities  (refer  to  the  respective  notes)  within  the  next 
financial year are discussed below.

Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic
Judgement  has  been  exercised  in  considering  the  impacts  that  the  Coronavirus  (COVID-19)  pandemic  has  had,  or  may 
have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the nature of the products and 
services offered, customers, supply chain, staffing and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity operates. Other 
than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant impact upon the financial 
statements or any significant uncertainties with respect to events or conditions which may impact the consolidated entity 
unfavourably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

Revenue from contracts with customers
Determining when to recognise revenues from maintenance services recognised over time is dependent on the extent to 
which the performance obligations have been satisfied. For maintenance service agreements, revenue recognition requires 
an understanding of the customer’s use of the related products, historical experience and knowledge of the market.

Recognised amounts of contract revenues and related receivables reflect management’s best estimate of each contract’s 
outcome  and  stage  of  completion.  This  includes  the  assessment  of  the  profitability  of  ongoing  contracts  and  the  order 
backlog.  For  more  complex  contracts  in  particular,  costs  to  complete  and  contract  profitability  are  subject  to  significant 
estimation uncertainty.

Allowance for expected credit losses
The allowance for expected credit losses assessment requires a degree of estimation and judgement. It is based on the 
lifetime  expected  credit  loss,  grouped  based  on  days  overdue,  and  makes  assumptions  to  allocate  an  overall  expected 
credit loss rate for each group. These assumptions include recent sales experience, historical collection rates, the impact 
of  the  Coronavirus  (COVID-19)  pandemic  and  forward-looking  information  that  is  available.  The  allowance  for  expected 
credit losses, as disclosed in note 9, is calculated based on the information available at the time of preparation. The actual 
credit losses in future years may be higher or lower.

Capitalised development costs
Distinguishing  the  research  and  development  phases  of  a  new  project  and  determining  whether  the  recognition 
requirements  for  the  capitalisation  of  development  costs  are  met  requires  judgement.  After  capitalisation,  management 
monitors  whether  the  recognition  requirements  continue  to  be  met  and  whether  there  are  any  indicators  that  capitalised 
costs may be impaired.

Impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible assets
The consolidated entity assesses impairment of non-financial assets other than goodwill and other indefinite life intangible 
at each reporting date by evaluating conditions specific to the consolidated entity and to the particular asset that may lead 
to impairment. If an impairment trigger exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined. This involves assessing 
the value of the asset at fair value less costs of disposal and using value-in-use models which incorporate a number of key 
estimates and assumptions.

Note 2. Critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions (continued)

Income tax
The  consolidated  entity  is  subject  to  income  taxes  in  the  jurisdictions  in  which  it  operates.  Significant  judgement  and 
estimates  are  required  in  recognising  and  measuring  current  and  deferred  tax  amounts.  For  any  uncertain  tax  treatment 
adopted  relating  to  transactions  or  events,  the  consolidated  entity  recognises  and  measures  tax  related  amounts  having 
regard to both the probability that such amounts may be challenged by a tax authority and the expected resolution of such 
uncertainties. In such circumstances, tax balances are determined based on either most-likely amount or expected-value 
probability based outcomes. Where final tax outcomes vary from what is estimated, such differences will impact the current 
and deferred tax provisions recognised in the financial statements.

Recovery of deferred tax assets
Deferred  tax  assets  are  recognised  for  deductible  temporary  differences  only  if  the  consolidated  entity  considers  it  is 
probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Lease term
The lease term is a significant component in the measurement of both the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Judgement 
is  exercised  in  determining  whether  there  is  reasonable  certainty  that  an  option  to  extend  the  lease  or  purchase  the 
underlying asset will be exercised, or an option to terminate the lease will not be exercised, when ascertaining the periods 
to  be  included  in  the  lease  term.  In  determining  the  lease  term,  all  facts  and  circumstances  that  create  an  economical 
incentive  to  exercise  an  extension  option,  or  not  to  exercise  a  termination  option,  are  considered  at  the  lease 
commencement date. Factors considered may include the importance of the asset to the consolidated entity's operations; 
comparison of terms and conditions to prevailing market rates; incurrence of significant penalties; existence of significant 
leasehold improvements; and the costs and disruption to replace the asset. The consolidated entity reassesses whether it 
is reasonably certain to exercise an extension option, or not exercise a termination option, if there is a significant event or 
significant change in circumstances.

Incremental borrowing rate
Where  the  interest  rate  implicit  in  a  lease  cannot  be  readily  determined,  an  incremental  borrowing  rate  is  estimated  to 
discount future lease payments to measure the present value of the lease liability at the lease commencement date. Such 
a rate is based on what the consolidated entity estimates it would have to pay a third party to borrow the funds necessary 
to obtain an asset of a similar value to the right-of-use asset, with similar terms, security and economic environment.

Note 3. Operating segments

Identification of reportable operating segments
The  consolidated  entity  operates  in  four  operating  segments  being  Australia,  United  States  of  America  ('USA'),  Europe 
Middle East and Africa ('EMEA') and Asia. The principal activities of each operating segment are identical, being the sale of 
hardware  and  software  products.  These  segments  are  based  on  the  internal  reports  that  are  reviewed  and  used  by  the 
Board of Directors (being the Chief Operating Decision Makers ('CODM')) in assessing performance and in determining the 
allocation of resources.

Other segments represent the activities of the corporate headquarters.

The information reported to the CODM, on at least a monthly basis, is profit or loss and adjusted earnings before interest, 
tax, depreciation and amortisation and other specific items ('Adjusted EBITDA').

For information about revenue from products and services, refer to note 4.

Intersegment transactions
Transactions between segments are carried out at arm’s length and are eliminated on consolidation.

Intersegment receivables, payables and loans
Intersegment receivables, payables and loans are eliminated on consolidation.

Major customers
During the year ended 30 June 2021, 2 customers (2020: 2 customers) each contributed more than 10% to the external 
revenue  of  the  consolidated  entity.  These  2  customers  contributed  31%  (2020:  2  customers  contributed  22%)  of  the 
consolidated entity's external revenue.

The consolidated entity is in the process of determining its tax loss position to carry forward.

Change in corporate tax rate
The corporate tax rate applicable to base rate entities reduces from 27.5% to 26% for the 2020-21 income year and further 
reduces to 25% prospectively from the 2021-22 income year. The consolidated entity qualifies as a base rate entity as it 
has a turnover of less than $50 million and less than 80% of its assessable income is derived from base rate entity passive 
income.  The  consolidated  entity  has  remeasured  its  deferred  tax  balances,  and  any  unrecognised  potential  tax  benefits 
arising from carried forward tax losses, based on the effective tax rate that is expected to apply in the year the temporary 
differences are expected to reverse or benefits from tax losses realised. The impact of the change in tax rate on deferred 
tax balances has been recognised as tax expense in profit or loss or as an adjustment to equity to the extent to which the 
deferred tax relates to items previously recognised outside profit or loss.

Impairment testing
At 30 June 2021, the cash generating units ('CGU') to which intangible assets belong was tested for impairment. For the 
purpose  of  impairment  testing,  the  Package  Asset  Delivery  ('PAD')  CGU  is  determined  to  be  the  sole  CGU  that  benefits 
from the core patented technology and product development costs. The net carrying value of the CGU is as follows:

Package Asset Delivery - PAD

Impairment test performed
The recoverable value of the CGU was assessed on a fair value basis (less likely costs of disposal). The fair value was 
determined by management, through the assistance of a third party valuations specialists.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 15. Non-current assets - intangibles (continued)

The fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement of the asset is categorised in its entirety is Level 3. The 
valuation techniques used to measure the fair value less likely costs of disposal were the Relief from Royalty Method and 
Multi  Period  Excess  Earnings  Method. Management  used  the  following  key  estimates  and  assumptions  in  the  valuation 
calculation:

Key items

Growth rate
Discount rate
Royalty rate
Customer attrition rate

Impairment test results
Based  on  the  testing  performed,  the  recoverable  amount  of  the  CGU  exceeded  the  carrying  value  and  no  impairment 
existed at 30 June 2021 (30 June 2020: no impairment).

Impairment test sensitivity 
A reasonable possible change in the key assumptions used to determine the recoverable amount of the CGU would not 
cause the remaining carrying value of the CGU to exceed its recoverable amount.

Ordinary shares
Ordinary shares entitle the holder to participate in any dividends declared and any proceeds attributable to shareholders 
should  the  company  be  wound  up,  in  proportions  that  consider  both  the  number  of  shares  held  and  the  extent  to  which 
those  shares  are  paid  up.  The  fully  paid  ordinary  shares  have  no  par  value  and  the  company  does  not  have  a  limited 
amount of authorised capital.

On a show of hands every member present at a meeting in person or by proxy shall have one vote and upon a poll each 
share shall have one vote.

Share buy-back
There is no current on-market share buy-back.

Unquoted options
At  30  June  2021,  there  were  2,091,000  (2020:  2,361,000)  options  on  issue  associated  with  share-based  payment 
arrangements  (see  note  34).  Each  option  entitles  the  holder  to  subscribe  for  one  fully  paid  share  in  the  company  upon 
exercise at any time from the date the vesting conditions have been satisfied until expiry of the options.

Note 21. Equity - issued capital (continued)

Capital risk management
The consolidated entity's objectives when managing capital are to safeguard its ability to continue as a going concern, so 
that it can provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders and to maintain an optimum capital structure 
to reduce the cost of capital.

In  order  to  maintain  or  adjust  the  capital  structure,  the  consolidated  entity  may  adjust  the  amount  of  dividends  paid  to 
shareholders, return capital to shareholders, issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt.

The  consolidated  entity  would  look  to  raise  capital  when  an  opportunity  to  invest  in  a  business  or  company  or  invest  in 
growth was seen as value adding.

The capital risk management policy remains unchanged from the 30 June 2020 Annual Report.

Capital is regarded as total equity, as recognised in the statement of financial position, plus net debt. Net debt is calculated 
as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

Notes to the financial statements

Note 24. Financial instruments

Financial risk management objectives
The consolidated entity's activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign currency risk, price 
risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The consolidated entity's overall risk management program focuses 
on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of 
the  consolidated  entity.  The  consolidated  entity  uses  different  methods  to  measure  different  types  of  risk  to  which  it  is 
exposed. These methods include sensitivity analysis in the case of interest rate, foreign exchange and ageing analysis for 
credit risk.

Risk management is carried out by senior finance executives ('finance') under policies approved by the Board of Directors 
('the  Board').  These  policies  include  identification  and  analysis  of  the  risk  exposure  of  the  consolidated  entity  and 
appropriate  procedures,  controls  and  risk  limits.  Finance  identifies,  evaluates  and  hedges  financial  risks  within  the 
consolidated entity's operating units. Finance reports to the Board on a monthly basis.

Market risk

Foreign currency risk
The  consolidated  entity  undertakes  certain  transactions  denominated  in  foreign  currency  and  is  exposed  to  foreign 
currency risk through foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions and recognised financial assets and financial liabilities 
denominated in a currency that is not the entity's functional currency. The risk is measured using sensitivity analysis and 
cash flow forecasting.

The  consolidated  entity's  foreign  exchange  risk  is  managed  to  ensure  sufficient  funds  are  available  to  meet  foreign 
currency commitments in a timely and cost-effective manner. The consolidated entity will continually monitor this risk and 
consider  entering  into  forward  foreign  exchange,  foreign  currency  swap  and  foreign  currency  option  contracts  if 
appropriate.

Creditors and debtors as at 30 June 2021 were reviewed to assess currency risk at year end. The value of transactions 
denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the respective subsidiary was insignificant and therefore 
the risk was determined as immaterial.

Price risk
The consolidated entity is not exposed to any significant price risk.

Interest rate risk
The  consolidated  entity's  main  interest  rate  risk  arises  from  long-term  borrowings.  Borrowings  issued  at  variable  rates 
expose the consolidated entity to interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the consolidated entity to fair 
value interest rate risk.

The  consolidated  entity  invests  surplus  cash  in  term  deposits  with  fixed  returns.  The  Board  makes  investment  decisions 
after considering advice received from professional advisors.

The consolidated entity monitors its interest rate exposure continuously.

As at the reporting date, the consolidated entity had the following variable rate exposures:

Notes to the financial statements

Note 24. Financial instruments (continued)

An analysis by remaining contractual maturities is shown in 'liquidity and interest rate risk management' below.

The  consolidated  entity  has  a  net  cash  deficit  totalling  $3,737,118  (2020:  net  cash  deficit  $10,105,413).  An  official 
increase/decrease  in  interest  rates  of  1  basis  point  (2020:  1  basis  point)  percentage  point  would  have  an 
adverse/favourable effect on profit before tax of $37,371 (2020: adverse/favourable $101,054) per annum. The percentage 
change is based on the expected volatility of interest rates using market data and analysts' forecasts.

Credit risk
Credit  risk  refers  to  the  risk  that  a  counterparty  will  default  on  its  contractual  obligations  resulting  in  financial  loss  to  the 
consolidated  entity.  The  consolidated  entity  has  a  strict  code  of  credit,  including  obtaining  agency  credit  information, 
confirming references and setting appropriate credit limits. The consolidated entity obtains guarantees where appropriate 
to  mitigate  credit  risk.  The  maximum  exposure  to  credit  risk  at  the  reporting  date  to  recognised  financial  assets  is  the 
carrying amount, net of any provisions for impairment of those assets, as disclosed in the statement of financial position 
and notes to the financial statements. The consolidated entity does not hold any collateral.

The  consolidated  entity  has  adopted  a  lifetime  expected  loss  allowance  in  estimating  expected  credit  losses  to  trade 
receivables  through  the  use  of  a  provisions  matrix  using  fixed  rates  of  credit  loss  provisioning.  These  provisions  are 
considered  representative  across  all  customers  of  the  consolidated  entity  based  on  recent  sales  experience,  historical 
collection rates and forward-looking information that is available.

The consolidated entity has a concentration of credit risk exposure with 1 customer (2020: 2 customers), which as at 30 
June 2021 owed the consolidated entity $278,096 (2020: $861,711) representing 11% (2020: 43%) of trade receivables. Of 
this  balance,  $210,678  (2020:  $53,537)  was  outside  the  customer's  respective  terms  of  trade,  however  management  is 
confident  of  collection  and  no  impairment  was  made  as  at  30  June  2021.  There  are  no  guarantees  against  these 
receivables but management closely monitors the receivable balance on a monthly basis and is in regular contact with this 
customer to mitigate risk.

There is a concentration of credit risk for cash at bank and cash on deposit as most monies in Australia are held with one 
financial institution, St George Bank.

Generally, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators of this include 
the  failure  of  a  debtor  to  engage  in  a  repayment  plan,  no  active  enforcement  activity  and  a  failure  to  make  contractual 
payments for a period greater than 1 year.

Liquidity risk
Vigilant liquidity risk management requires the consolidated entity to maintain sufficient liquid assets (mainly cash and cash 
equivalents) and available borrowing facilities to be able to pay debts as and when they become due and payable.

The consolidated entity manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash reserves and available borrowing facilities by 
continuously monitoring actual and forecast cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities.

Note 25. Fair value measurement

Unless  otherwise  stated,  the  carrying  amounts  of  financial  instruments  reflect  their  fair  value.  The  carrying  amounts  of 
trade receivables and trade payables are assumed to approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair 
value of financial liabilities is estimated by discounting the remaining contractual maturities at the current market interest 
rate that is available for similar financial instruments.

The TZ Employee Incentive Scheme
The  TZ  Employee  Incentive  Scheme  ('TZEIS')  was  approved  by  shareholders  at  the  2009  Annual  General  Meeting  that 
was held on 26 February 2010 and re-approved by shareholders at the 2020 Annual General Meeting held on 4 November 
2020.  TZEIS  was  established  to  attract,  retain,  motivate  and  reward  senior  executives  and  directors  (including  non-
executive  directors)  of  the  company  (collectively  the  'Participants')  by  issuing  options  to  the  Participants  to  allow  the 
Participants to acquire fully paid ordinary class shares in the company upon exercising the options. 

Each  tranche  of  options  had  a  fixed  number  granted  with  vesting  periods  from  one  to  three  years.  Each  option,  when 
validly exercised, entitles the holder to receive one fully paid share in the company. 

Set out below are summaries of options granted under the plan:

Note 35. Events after the reporting period

On 1 July 2021, TZ drew down the full debenture facility of $2,500,000 that was established with First Samuel on 29 June 
2021, and which matures on 31 July 2022. This facility carries a coupon rate of BBSW + 4.5% per annum and a facility fee 
of 1% per annum payable in advance. The drawn funds were used to repay $2.1 million of debt due under the old facility 
that matured on 31 July 2021 as well as the facility fee of the new debenture facility.

On 17 August 2021, the company issued 16,666,667 ordinary shares to First Samuel Limited at a deemed issue price of 
$0.12 per share following the conversion of $2,000,000 of debenture debt into ordinary shares in the company which was 
approved by the company’s shareholders at an Extraordinary General Meeting held on 16 August 2021.

The consequences of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic are continuing to be felt around the world, and its impact on 
the  consolidated  entity,  if  any,  has  been  reflected  in  its  published  results  to  date.  Whilst  it  would  appear  that  control 
measures and related government policies, including the roll out of the vaccine, have started to mitigate the risks caused 
by COVID-19, it is not possible at this time to state that the pandemic will not subsequently impact the consolidated entity's 
operations going forward. The consolidated entity now has experience in the swift implementation of business continuation 
processes  should  future  lockdowns  of  the  population  occur,  and  these  processes  continue  to  evolve  to  minimise  any 
operational disruption. Management continues to monitor the situation both locally and internationally.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT 

TO THE MEMBERS OF TZ LIMITED  

Report on the Financial Report 

Opinion 

We  have  audited  the  accompanying  financial  report  of  TZ  Limited  (the  company),  which  comprises  the 
consolidated statement of financial position as at 30 June 2021, the consolidated statement of profit or loss 
and  other  comprehensive  income,  the  consolidated  statement  of  changes  in  equity  and  the  consolidated 
statement  of  cash  flows  for  the  year  then  ended,  notes  comprising  a  summary  of  significant  accounting 
policies  and  other  explanatory  information,  and  the  directors’  declaration  of  the  company  and  the 
consolidated  entity comprising  the company and  the entities  it controlled at  the  year’s end  or from time to 
time during the financial year. 

In our opinion the financial report of TZ Limited is in accordance with the Corporations Act 2001, including: 

a)

b)

Giving a true and fair view of the consolidated entity’s financial position as at 30 June 2021
and of its performance for the year ended on that date; and

Complying with Australian Accounting Standards and the Corporations Regulations 2001.

Basis for Opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards. Our responsibilities under those 
standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report section 
of our report. 

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 
opinion.  

Independence 

We are independent of the consolidated entity in accordance with the auditor independence requirements of 
the  Corporations  Act  2001  and  the  ethical  requirements  of  the  Accounting  Professional  and  Ethical 
Standards  Board’s  APES  110  Code  of  Ethics  for  Professional  Accountants  (including  Independence 
Standards) (the Code) that are relevant to our audit of the financial report in Australia. We have also fulfilled 
our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. 

Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern 

Without modifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the financial report,  which indicates that the 
consolidated entity incurred a net loss of $1,658,204 and net operating cash outflows of $2,597,427 during 
the  year  ended  30  June  2021.  The  consolidated  entity  has  recorded  a  net  current  asset  deficiency  of 
$3,444,748 as at 30 June 2021. As stated in Note 1, these events or conditions, along with other matters as 
set  forth  in  Note  1,  indicate  that  a  material  uncertainty  exists  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  on  the 
consolidated  entity’s  ability  to  continue  as  a  going  concern  and  therefore,  the  consolidated  entity  may  be 
unable to realise its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Key Audit Matter 

Key  audit  matters  are  those  matters  that,  in  our  professional  judgement,  were  of  most  significance  in  our 
audit of the financial report of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit 
of  the  financial  report  as  a  whole,  and  in  forming  our  opinion  thereon,  and  we  do  not  provide  a  separate 
opinion on these matters. For each matter below, our description of how our audit addressed the matter is 
provided in that context. 

1. Carrying amount of intangible assets with finite useful lives

How our audit addressed the key audit matter 

In  assessing  this  key  audit  matter,  we  involved  senior 
audit team members who understand the industry.

for
determining  the  carrying  amount  of  intangible

- assessing  growth  rates  used  in  comparison  to
historical results 
- evaluating  the WACC  rate  used  in  comparison
to market and industry information available

As at 30 June 2021 the carrying value of intangible 
assets with finite useful lives was $1,571,725 (2020: 
$1,845,580), as disclosed in Note 15. 

The group’s accounting policy in respect of intangible 
assets with finite useful lives is outlined in Note 1.  

The carrying amount of intangible assets with finite 
useful lives is a key audit matter due to:

Other Information 

The  Directors  are  responsible  for  the  other  information.  The  other  information  comprises  the  information 
included  in  the  consolidated  entity’s  Annual  Report,  but  does  not  include  the  financial  report  and  our 
auditor’s report thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial report does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of 
assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial report, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in 
doing  so,  consider  whether  the  other  information  is  materially  inconsistent  with  the  financial  report  or  our 
knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we 
have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required 
to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.  

Directors’ Responsibilities for the Financial Report 

The Directors of the company are responsible for the preparation of the financial report that gives a true and 
fair view in accordance with Australian Accounting Standards and the  Corporations Act 2001 and for such 
internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial report that 
gives a true and fair view and is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial report, the Directors are responsible for assessing the consolidated  entity’s ability 
to  continue  as  a  going  concern,  disclosing,  as  applicable,  matters  related  to  going  concern  and  using  the 
going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the consolidated entity or to 
cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Report 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial report as a whole is free from 
material  misstatement,  whether  due  to  fraud  or  error,  and  to  issue  an  auditor’s  report  that  includes  our 
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted 
in accordance with Australian Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. 
Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in aggregate, they 
could  reasonably  be  expected  to  influence  the  economic  decisions  of  users  taken  on  the  basis  of  this 
financial report. 
As part of an  audit  in accordance  with  Australian Auditing  Standards,  we exercise professional judgement 
and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: 



Identify  and  assess  the  risks  of  material  misstatement  of  the  financial  report,  whether  due  to  fraud  or
error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient  and  appropriate  to  provide  a  basis  for  our  opinion.  The  risk  of  not  detecting  a  material
misstatement  resulting  from  fraud  is  higher  than  for  one  resulting  from  error,  as  fraud  may  involve
collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are  appropriate  in  the  circumstances,  but  not  for  the  purpose  of  expressing  an  opinion  on  the
effectiveness of the consolidated entity’s internal control.

 Evaluate  the  appropriateness  of  accounting  policies  used  and  the  reasonableness  of  accounting

estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors.

 Conclude  on  the  appropriateness  of  the  Directors’  use  of  the  going  concern  basis  of  accounting  and,
based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained,  whether  a  material  uncertainty  exists  related  to  events  or
conditions  that  may  cast  significant  doubt  on  the  consolidated  entity’s  ability  to  continue  as  a  going
concern.  If  we  conclude  that  a  material  uncertainty  exists,  we  are  required  to  draw  attention  in  our

60

auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial report or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to 
modify  our  opinion.  Our  conclusions  are  based  on  the  audit  evidence  obtained  up  to  the  date  of  our 
auditor’s  report.  However,  future  events  or  conditions  may  cause  the  consolidated  entity  to  cease  to 
continue as a going concern. 

 Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial report, including the disclosures,
and  whether  the  financial  report  represents  the  underlying  transactions  and  events  in  a  manner  that
achieves fair presentation.

 Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities  within  the  consolidated  entity  to  express  an  opinion  on  the  group  financial  report.  We  are
responsible  for  the  direction,  supervision  and  performance  of  the  group  audit.  We  remain  solely
responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate  with the  Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and  timing  of the 
audit  and  significant  audit  findings,  including  any  significant  deficiencies  in  internal  control  that  we  identify 
during our audit.  

We  also  provide  the  Directors  with  a  statement  that  we  have  complied  with  relevant  ethical  requirements 
regarding  independence,  and  to  communicate  with  them  all  relationships  and  other  matters  that  may 
reasonably  be  thought  to  bear  on  our  independence,  and  where  applicable,  actions  taken  to  eliminate 
threats or safeguards applied.  

From  the  matters  communicated  with  the  Directors,  we  determine  those  matters  that  were  of  most 
significance in the audit of the financial report of the current period and are therefore  the key audit matters. 
We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about 
the  matter  or  when,  in  extremely  rare  circumstances,  we  determine  that  a  matter  should  not  be 
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected 
to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication. 

Report on the Remuneration Report 

We  have  audited  the  Remuneration  Report  included  in  the  directors’  report  for  the  year  ended  30  June 
2021.  The  Directors  of  the  company  are  responsible  for  the  preparation  and  presentation  of  the 
Remuneration Report in accordance with section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001. Our responsibility is to 
express  an  opinion  on  the  Remuneration  Report,  based  on  our  audit  conducted  in  accordance  with 
Australian Auditing Standards.  

Opinion 

In  our  opinion,  the  Remuneration  Report  of  TZ  Limited  for  the  year  ended  30  June  2021  complies  with 
section 300A of the Corporations Act 2001.
